Victoria Fillis
North Africa, Middle East

I was born in northern Germany and moved to Bremen for my Bachelor’s degree in business studies, where I also continued with my Master’s degree focusing on Marketing. Having Bremen as a base, I love travelling and getting to know new people and different cultures – that’s one of the reasons why I think Jacobs is a great place to work. When I am not working I like to keep myself busy so I love to run a lot, watch football with friends or try out new (vegetarian) food places.

I am the Regional Manager for Middle East & North Africa - so everyone from this region interested in learning more about Jacobs University feel free to contact me.
Languages I speak: English, German, Spanish, and currently working on my Arabic skills

Ryan Mrowka
North America

I am originally from a small city in New York, but I have lived in several places along the American east coast. I served in the U.S. Army and taught high school history for over a decade before moving my family to Bremen. I love that Jacobs gives me the opportunity to connect with people from around the world. When I am not recruiting, I enjoy playing with my kids and watching or playing soccer (I mean “football”).

I am the regional manager for North America. Applicants and counselors from these regions, feel free to contact me.
Languages I speak: English and some German and Spanish

Hawa Kaisi Mushi
Sub-Saharan Africa

I am from the beautiful land of Tanzania, a home to Mt. Kilimanjaro, Zanzibar and the mighty Serengeti. I first arrived in German as a Masters exchange student with a background in Geography and Natural Resources management. I later proceeded with a PhD in Environmental Sciences. Apart from this, I have a passion for languages, academics, cultural diversity and gender-equality. By working at Jacobs, I get to experience all these day by day. Outside work, I love to travel, take walks around nature and cook for my family and friends.

I am the regional manager for the Sub-Saharan Africa region. Applicants and counselors from these regions, feel free to get in touch with me!
